Only 88 thousand jobs created, but Obama uses Air Force One to attend 4 California fundraising events, and is throwing a concert party at the White House tonight

President Obama is back to campaigning an fundraising. Last week, our Chief Fundraiser traveled on Air Force One to San Francisco CA to attend 4 different fundraising events. In order to have the American taxpayers pay for this DNC/DCCC trip, Mr. Obama landed in Denver Colorado and spoke about gun control. Tickets for the fundraisers cost $5,000 at the first event, $32,500 at the second event, $32,400 at the third event, and ranged from $1,000 to $20,000 at the fourth event (Obama’s California fundraising trip irks left and right).

Besides the use of Air Force One, Mr. Obama stayed at the Intecontinental hotel, and booked the $3,500 per night presidential suite. For convenience, Mr. Obama flew from San Francisco to Atherton CA (just 10 or more miles away) as well.

Once back on the East Coast, Mr. Obama hosted a late Easter breakfast, and flew to Hartford CT to talk about gun control again.

On the official side, President Obama received 3 daily briefings, and met once with his senior advisers and Chuck Hagel.
